Oxygen Limit Fraction

A term used by SUUNTO for the values displayed in

the Oxygen Toxicity bargraph. The value is either the

CNS% or the OTU%.

O

2

%

Oxygen percentage or oxygen fraction in the breathing

gas. Standard air has 21% oxygen.

Oxygen partial pressure Limits the maximum depth to which the used Nitrox

mixture can safely be used. The maximum partial

pressure limit for enriched air diving is 1.4 bar. The

contingency partial pressure limit is 1.6 bar. Dives

beyond this limit have the risk for immediate oxygen

toxicity.

PO

2

Abbreviation for oxygen partial pressure.

RGBM

Abbreviation for Reduced Gradient Bubble Model.

Reduced Gradient

Bubble Model

Modern algorithm for tracking both dissolved and free

gas in divers.

Repetitive dive

Any dive whose decompression time limits are affected

by residual nitrogen absorbed during previous dives.

Residual nitrogen

The amount of excess nitrogen remaining in a diver

after one or more dives.
